Snipes paternity suit dismissed
From Associated Press
A paternity lawsuit against Wesley Snipes was dismissed after a DNA test determined that another man was the father.
New York Family Court Judge Mary Bednar dismissed the lawsuit Thursday. It was filed in 2002 by a woman identified by one of Snipes’ lawyers as Lanise Pettis. The woman, who didn’t attend the brief proceeding, alleged she had sex with Snipes in a Chicago crack house and that he was the father of her 3-year-old son.
